This whitethorn be associated with particular regions or functions of thebrainor rest of thenervous system, often in asocial context.The knowledge and understanding ofmental wellnessconditions have changed over time and crosswise cultures and there are still variations in definition, assessment andclassification, although standard guidepost criteria are widely used. In many cases, there appears to be acontinuumbetween mental health and mental illness, making diagnosis complex. fit in to theWorld Health Organisation(WHO), over a third of mint in most c ountries report problems at some time in their life which meet criteria for diagnosis of one or more of the mutual types of mental disorder.Thecauses of mental disordersare varied and in some cases unclear, and theories may incorporate findings from a range of fields.

Research conducted during the past year continues to highlight the dual attitudinal and structural barriers that prevent people with mental disabilities from becoming active participants in the competitive labour market.
